True...but that's why I qualified that with "for anything I've wanted...". I
tend to be involved with different sorts of computers in different locations.
Between that and lack of an accurate crystal ball, I have "portability" in
my list of within-reason requirements :-).

At any rate...I don't remember the original question, but from the subject
line...easy ways to force a modem to hangup might be to turn it off or
unplug the phone line from it (does that actually hangup? I don't think I've
tried it).
